Smile Tips for Washing Machine

Tips for Washing Machine
  1. Semi-automatic top loading machines are good for use in such places that face electricity and water problems. In these machines manual intervention would be required . Automatic top loading also needs manual intervention. Front loading doesn’t require manual intervention but are quite expensive.
  2. Wash load is the amount of clothes (in kgs.) that the washing machine can handle at a time. Home-use washing machines in India have a capacity of 3 kgs to 10 kgs. The choice of a washing machine would be dependent on your washing needs.
  3. Auto Restart facility helps in case the wash process is interrupted due to power failure. This feature restarts the machine from the point the cycle wash interrupted.
  4. Automatic Drainage is applied at the end of the wash and rinse cycles. This feature automatically drains out the water.
  5. Child Lock prevents unauthorized opening to the lid while the machine is in operation.

  1. Place your machine nearest to a water connection, a three-point socket, and a proper drainage system.
  2. Don’t overload your machine.
  3. Clothes with metal buttons and zippers should be washed separately, light coloured clothes separately, and so on.
  4. Using the right detergent in the right quantity is very important. You can use 10 litres of water and ½ a scoop of recommended detergent.
  5. Woollen clothes should not be spin-dried as they lose their shape and become matted.
To save energy
Wash most clothes in warm or cold water, but take care to rinse in cold water.
  1. Use hot water only if the machine specifications state that you can use it.
  2. Switching the washer temperature setting from hot to warm, could reduce a load’s energy in half.
  3. Don’t use too much detergent. Follow the instructions on the box. Oversudsing makes your machine work harder and use more energy.
  4. Don’t mix chemicals. Combinations can be dangerous. Bleach, for instance, when mixed with rust inhibitor, releases poisonous gases.
